Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0114305A2] A representation of a printed character having any size is reduced to a standard size. The representation is formed into a matrix of elements having rows and columns. In order to reduce the size of the matrix selected rows are either combined or are deleted. The length of each row is then adjusted. The rules applied for reduction of rows and lengths of rows are based on the overall height and width of the original representation. <??>The representation is initially stored in a buffer 2 and analysed in units 4, 7, 9 and 10 and inserted in normalised form in register 8. The rules for reduction of height and width are stored in tables 5, 12 for look-up.
